Proverbs 10:17-19

Young's Literal Translation

¹⁷A traveller to life [is] he who is keeping instruction, And whoso is forsaking rebuke is erring.

¹⁸Whoso is covering hatred with lying lips, And whoso is bringing out an evil report is a fool.

¹⁹In the abundance of words transgression ceaseth not, And whoso is restraining his lips [is] wise.

Proverbs 10:17-19

New International Version

¹⁷Whoever heeds discipline shows the way to life,^(A)
but whoever ignores correction leads others astray.

¹⁸Whoever conceals hatred with lying lips^(B)
and spreads slander is a fool.

¹⁹Sin is not ended by multiplying words,
but the prudent hold their tongues.^(C)
